The tragic Oscar winner was found at his home in Tiburon, Calif., after apparently taking his own life.

The news of Williams’ death was accompanied by speculation concerning the state of his mind, and rumors about his finances and past addiction battles.

His publicist addressed the gossip on Wednesday, insisting Williams had no financial woes, and his widow, Susan Schneider shed light on Williams’ state of mind at the time of his death by revealing her husband was sober but still coming to terms with a recent Parkinson’s disease diagnosis in a statement released to the media on Thursday.

And following the announcement, Fox, who has been battling the same debilitating condition since the early 1990s, took to Twitter.com to share his thoughts.

He wrote, “Stunned to learn Robin had PD (Parkinson’s Disease). Pretty sure his support for our Fdn (Foundation) predated his diagnosis. A true friend; I wish him peace.”

Fox, who was diagnosed with the disease in 1991, disclosed his condition to the public in 1998 and established The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research in 2000.

Since then, his organization has become the largest non-profit funder of Parkinson’s Disease research in the world, and has invested in more than $350 million in finding a cure.
